I haven’t played it myself yet, but I’m hearing very good things about Plague Tale Requiem at 40fps. I think we need to prepare for many more current gen only games that won’t be offering a 60fps mode or one where the visual cutbacks aren’t too severe. So maybe 40fps is the answer?

Starfield for example. I don’t think we can expect 60fps with the visuals we saw, especially keeping in mind what Todd said. But perhaps they can have a mode where they leave the framerate uncapped? I think that’s what Plague Tale is dojng, isn’t it?

Had some super tense cat-and-mouse Invasions in Deathloop playing as Colt against Julianna.

This game is a masterpiece. I understand better why IGN and Gamespot gave it a 10/10.

It gets even more epic when you discover you can ally with 2-BIT and make the AI target Julianna as the enemy too or when you get that Fugue Discord ability that makes the guards attack each others (reminds me the Psychosis Gun in Perfect Dark). Pure chaos.

I would love the next Perfect Dark to bring back the Counter-Ops mode if the design of the game they’re going for allows it.

Felt the same way about the game. Big surprise for me. Also I was reminded of Goldeneye/Perfect Dark constantly just from the way this game feels. I wish the next PD would be something similar to this game. The structure is brilliant.

And to the question about Jason reporting it was internally rebooted…

Sounds great to me. Now the question is…when. TGA? E3?

I think it’s good it got rebooted since it means the game will look a lot better on Unreal Engine 5. And hopefully it will be at the TGA’s but I don’t expect to see it until E3 next year.

Anyone else super glad Xbox it’s returning to wrpg. It’s what made me like the 360 so much with mass effect and oblivion etc.

Can’t wait to see what inxile are cooking up as well.

It’s incredibly smart.

I know everyone wants third-person action-adventure and various other genres, but it’s smart of Xbox to double down on the genres that made it popular in the first place (RPG, FPS, racing) and expand outward from there. They are making Xbox THE destination for RPGs, FPSs and racing games and that is a very good near-term strategy and will ensure longterm engagement from those communities for many years to come.
